2. Dual gate will not
operate. (Ranger II)
Verify monitored
entrapment device
switches are set
correctly. See installing
monitored entrapment
devices section.
1. Follow steps 1 through 7 above.
2. Disconnect the actuator connectors plugged into the control board
Gate 1 and Gate 2 (X1 and X2). Then locate the SW1 dipswitches
on the control board. Turn off switch 4 (down on left side) and turn
on switch 3 (down on the right side).
Reconnect the connector from the actuator that goes to the gate
closest to you. Connect it to the Gate 1 (X1) connector on the
control board. Press the “Open/Close Command” button and verify
that the gate operates.
3. If the gate operates correctly, disconnect the actuator plug and
connect the other actuator plug into the Gate 1 (X1) connector.
Press the “Open/Close Command” button and verify that the gate
operates correctly. At this point you have tested each actuator
individually. If both worked correctly in Gate 1 then go back to SW1
and turn switch 3 off and switch 4 on. Then repeat step 2 and 3
again using Gate 2 (X2) connector on control board in place of Gate
1 (X1).
4. If a problem is observed in steps 2 or 3 above most likely it was
when the Gate 2 actuator (located the greatest distance from control
box) was being tested. If this is correct check wiring splices for
moisture, correct wiring etc. If the wiring is not in watertight conduit,
this is most likely the problem. Tape is not watertight. Splices should
never be underground.
3. Single or Dual
gate will not
operate.Monitored
entrapment devices
are installed.
Identify the monitored
entrapment device/
devices installed - Photo
Eye or Contact Edge.
Contact Edge with 10K resistor monitoring -
1. Verify that dip switch SW1 switch 10 (contact edge monitor) is ON
pressed down on the right hand side..
2. Press and hold the LED indicator on the control board.
3. Verify the LD3 LED (Contact edge 2nd entrapment) located below
the J2 plug is OFF.
4. If ON then check wire connections from contact edge for proper
connection.
5. If wires are good then verify the contact edge has a 8.25k or 10k
resistor installed. Verify by disconnecting and checking with meter.
6. Activate the contact edge by depressing it and verify the LD3 LED is
ON bright.
7. If not contact edge is bad
